I've already done a good bit of searching and have yet to find what I'm looking for, so here goes-
Is there a good, comprehensive thread which explores/discusses the tradeoffs (functional performance, prices, availability) of the various options for converting a 915 tranny for adaptation to a 914-6 conversion project. Thanks. |

It's been pretty hashed out in this thread.
http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?showtopic=102988 I'm running Martin Bott's kit. I would recommend it for a 3.2 or 3.6 motor. Anything smaller I would stay with the 901/914 gear box. If I had a 3.6, I would look into the 6 speed boxster S trans and cable shifter. |
